 602        If the directory on which a file system is to be mounted is a symbolic
 603        link, the file system is mounted on the directory to which the symbolic
 604        link refers, rather than being mounted on top of the symbolic link
 605        itself.

 608        SunOS 4.x used the biod maintenance procedure to perform parallel read-
 609        ahead and write-behind on NFS clients. SunOS 5.x made biod obsolete with
 610        multi-threaded processing, which transparently performs parallel read-
 611        ahead and write-behind.

 613 
 614        Since the root (/) file system is mounted read-only by the kernel during
 615        the boot process, only the remount option (and options that can be used
 616        in conjunction with remount) affect the root (/) entry in the
 617        /etc/vfstab file.

 624        The NFS client service is managed by the service management facility,
 625        smf(5), under the service identifier:
 626 
 627          svc:/network/nfs/client:default

 631 
 632        Administrative actions on this service, such as enabling, disabling, or
 633        requesting restart, can be performed using svcadm(1M). The service's
 634        status can be queried using the svcs(1) command.
